It has always been a question of mine. Who designed Google’s logo? Also I’ve thought to myself what type of font did he/she use. Finally the cat is out of the bag and Wired magazine had an interview with Ruth Kedar, the graphic designer who developed the now-famous logo. It’s always cool […]
If you hadn’t seen Afro Ninja before–it’s a must that you do. I’ve probably replayed this video 10 times and laughed harder every time I saw him trying to get up and continue with his nun chucks.
Listen to the people behind the cameras trying to tell him to lay there and not get up. He […]
Modern day plastic surgery is nothing new. This was thought of in the earlier days circa 1932. However, I don’t think that I would have been one of the first people to ever try the procedure either.
NOTE: New scientific device shapes flesh and cartilage of nose quickly, safely, painlessly–or your money refunded.
Back in those […]

In the history of man, the single most creative dance move ever is Michael Jackson doing the Moonwalk. He was the originator and will always be able to do it better than anyone.
If you disagree, please let it be known what dance move is better than the Moonwalk.

Pay attention to the lyrics. It gives a clear understanding what the robots are here to do. It reminds me of the movie iRobots, which I love to watch over and over. Personally I wouldn’t mind having a robot do some of my chores. Only thing that it might not be able […]

Do you ever think back to the days when no one knew of an artist that was neither mainstream nor very popular, but you knew he/she was talented? That’s what I think of Cee-Lo.
He’s been doing this for a long time. I remember thinking, when he was with Goodie Mob laying a verse […]

An awesome collection of Pelican Book Covers ranging from the 1930’s thru 1970’s. Graphically, I’d say it by far the most simplistic pleasures in book designs. I’m a bit biased when it comes to simple design.

A geeks and graffiti combination makes for an interesting view.
Everyone knows what the definition of candid photography is right? An un-posed and unplanned photography of someone. I will be doing tons of this come the end of March. I’m headed back home to Texarkana, AR for my Big Momma’s 84th birthday party. She has this shindig every year, but […]
This has been an ongoing question, not only other people ask, I ask myself every now and again. Some of my colleague(s) at work try to get me to see why I should vote.
One of the guys sent me a link to a website that has a quiz you can take to see who […]
It is simply amazing what people can do. Stephen is autistic. His first words “pencil” and “paper” when he was 5 years old. Amazingly, when he was 11 he drew an unbelievably near perfect aerial view of London after one helicopter ride. He had only three days to complete the drawing.

Some people only use a select few fonts. I have to admit. I wouldn’t mind being able to use several fonts (more than needed) in one piece of work, but I know that’s not good for the overall design. So I will simply stay away from a bunch of fonts.

Keeping up with typography through font websites are a great way stay current on the latest trends. I am not going to promote one over the other, but a few of my favorites such as Myfonts and Fontshop are my two picks.

The best ever national anthem was song by Marvin Gaye hands down. I know some of you may feel that I might not be 100% right. If you don’t think so please argue your point. Also send me the linkage or whatever to help drive your point that Marvin Gaye’s national anthem […]
